"In a complicated situation I called the president of Romania and Romania put itself forward," he said during an official visit to Bucharest. Romanian soldiers would also be present from now on in the "very dangerous" southern Afghan region of Zabul, said the NATO chief. In September, Bucahrest increased the number of soldiers participating in the NATO-led International <http://www.playfuls.com/bizworld/> Security Assistance Force (ISAF) mission by 190, bringing the total number of Romanian soldiers in Afghanistan to over 800.
